Jesse, Cghub uses a random algorithm to chose what images are shown at what pixel size based on the forum thread post # and attachment. So in theory it runs it self and a really crappy picture could be large for one moment but it would change as soon as you hit refresh a few times. To others yea image overload is fine for…
Exactly why I don't want one here. People use CGhub like a portfolio site (for some, it is their portfolio), rather than a community or place for discussion.
I like the waywo too, but if you look at it, it's not uncommon to see "hit n run" art posts, "awesome" posts, pro-stuff requoted x times, noobs ignored etc. The cghub mosa
Internet High-Five! This may be a bit extreme, but you could limit the amount of threads each member is allowed to create per sub-forum. I know that Pior's mention of CGHUB's frontpage may seem like it's off-topic, but I think it could work to focus people's attention on art over GD. If they go to the frontpage and see…
I love that layout Pior did. So awesome. If we add that in addition to the forum, and have each of those images link to a WIP thread, that'll be awesome. As to the CGhub thing, I'm not too good with that stuff, but I'm pretty sure it's just Thickbox.
Here's a quick mockup of my "dream polycount". There's a bit of PC, ZBC and CGhub all mashed together :D Now obviously it's quite a different approach from what we have now and it would require some work. It could also be seen as quite an extreme makeover. But my point is simply that I think we should find ways to focus on…
MakeCG has a point about potentially ruining things. Just like everything else, any change or improvement needs to be tried and tested before committing to it... In general I think it's always nice to allow for optional features instead of a hard, no-turning-back switch. CGHub switched to a black theme lately, but at least…
Well I certainly don't know the factors behind thumbnail size on the CGHub front page but I think that a purely random solution would be great! It would give everybody a chance to be noticed. And yeah if we go for images, a distinction between WIP and final would be great. No need for an artist to repost everything under a…
I can see the thumbnail mouseover to be a step in the right direction - but it would still feel like a bit of an hack. It sure would save some clicks and random digging tho. I think it's important to not be afraid of breaking the "pretty" line-by-line forum layout. It is adapted to some other forums where everything is…
